In an interview with The AP, Offerman explained how he and Mullally are able to share both work and their love life.

"I think the accepted rule of thumb is that you don't bring your marriage to the workplace, but we feel very lucky that for some reason I think it's important that we both are successful," the actor explained.

He continued: "If one of us wasn't succeeding, I think that would make a difference in the paradigm, but we both are getting to exercise our own weird muscles, and we're able to leave our egos out of it. We love working as a team and I love to see her succeed and I'm very aware of how that helps me in our household.

"I love to plug Megan because you know she deserves a lot of kudos, but also because it's all in the family. She's such a comedy hero to me."

Offerman also named Parks and Recreation co-star Amy Poehler as another of his favorite comics.

"It's so hard not to laugh at Amy. She's just so wickedly funny and I've had to develop this psychological trick where I pretend she's my sister," he revealed.

He further explained: "I have a couple sisters and there are reasons when you hate your sisters' guts... where like in high school everyone loves one of them for some reason so you hate them because of their popularity.

"I try to get into this mind-set where she's being so funny and I think to myself, 'Oh, you're so funny. Everyone loves you so much'. And I pretend she's my sister. It allows her humor to not affect me for a moment. But even that she batters through."
